Title: Procedures for Selecting Lines 

to be Covered by the Theft Prevention 

Standard (49 CFR 542). 

OMB Control Number: 2127–0539. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

Abstract: Manufacturers of light duty 

trucks must identify new model 

introductions that are likely to be hightheft lines as defined in 49 U.S.C. 

33104. In 1984, Congress enacted the 

Motor Vehicle Theft Law Enforcement 

Act (the 1984 Theft Act). As a means to 

prevent the theft of motor vehicles for 

their parts, the 1984 Theft Act required 

vehicle manufacturers to mark the major 

parts of ‘‘high-theft’’ passenger cars and 

the major replacement parts for those 

cars. The Anti Car Theft Act of 1992 

(ACTA) amended the 1984 Theft Act to 

extend its provisions to multipurpose 

passenger vehicles (MPVs) and light 

duty trucks (LDTs). 

The 1984 Theft Act, as amended by 

ACTA, requires NHTSA to promulgate a 

theft prevention standard for the 

designation of high-theft vehicle lines. 

The specific lines are to be selected by 

agreement between the manufacturer 

and the agency. If there is a 

disagreement of the selection, the 

statute states that the agency shall select 

such lines and parts, after notice to the 

manufacturer and an opportunity for 

written comment. NHTSA’s procedures 

for selecting high theft vehicle lines are 

contained in 49 CFR Part 542. 

In a final rule published on April 6, 

2004, the Federal Motor Vehicle Theft 

Prevention Standard was extended to 

include all passenger cars and 

multipurpose passenger vehicles with a 

gross vehicle weight rating of 6,000 

pounds or less, regardless of whether 

they were likely to be high or low theft, 

and to light duty trucks with major parts 

that are interchangeable with a majority 

of the covered major parts of 

multipurpose passenger vehicles. The 

final rule became effective September 1, 

2006. 

Since the new parts-marking final rule 

became effective, the number of 

petitions requested from manufacturers 

will increase. NHTSA anticipates that 

there are approximately 7 vehicle 

manufacturers that will request a theft 

determination, since the effective date 

of the rule, all 7 are still active in the 

U.S. market and are estimated to 

respond on an annual basis. We 

anticipate this to remain the average 

number of yearly responses received by 

the agency. 

NHTSA estimates that the average 

hours per submittal will be 45, for a 

total annual burden of 315. This 

decrease from the previous OMB 

inventory of 900 hours. NHTSA 

estimates that the cost associated with 

the burden hours is a $57.06 per hour, 

for a total cost of approximately 

$18,000. 

Affected Public: Motor vehicle 

manufacturers. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 

NHTSA estimates that there would be 

no additional cost to motor vehicle 

manufacturers that would require it to 

comply to this regulation. 

Issued on: March 7, 2008.
